At its heart is the stunning Ely Cathedral, which gives the city a strong sense of identity and a picturesque setting, while the surrounding riverside and green spaces add to its relaxed, almost rural feel. Despite its size, Ely has good everyday amenities, independent shops, cafés, and a regular market alongside well-regarded schools and a strong community atmosphere. It’s also particularly attractive for commuters, with direct rail links to Cambridge, London and beyond, allowing you to enjoy a quieter lifestyle without feeling cut off.

For secondary education, Cromwell Community College remains the principal local option, offering a broad curriculum, GCSEs, and post-16 courses, and holding a ‘Good’ Ofsted rating.
